Limit the Number of Private Messages a user can send

Hi,

Is it possible to limit the number of private messages a user can send per day, week. :rolleyes:

Hi

This could be done a number of ways! You could do via the templates, but thats what I call making more work for your self! I would add a permmision column to the user table or just make a pm permission table ( so you dont have to worry when upgrading comes), or just do it by groups! No matter what way you did it, you would not need another query, because you could get the count and the permission for that user or group adding a join on one of the other querys! If you used the group or user table method then no join would be needed on the SELECT, but when upgrade time comes much work!

If you want this I think I can do it really quick (add the option to the Admin Panel), but I will only do it to support one method! ( By Group or By Each User) The group way allows you to control access for a whole group, one update sets the whole group permission control (allowed to send #, per day, week, month)! The user method gives more control, but you will have to set the limits for each user, which can be a pain if you have many members! But then if you think about it, you can use it only on members that should only be given limited access to PMs.
